Pros

Very good organisation , with lot of values and employee caring. Good facilities like gym, cab, cafeteria. Platforms BU working in cutting edge technologies

Cons

Politics, Politics ,Politics everywhere. Don't ever join the Commerce Experience BU in PDCI. There are lot of teams in this BU which just does maintenance. The culture is so sick that no matter how much you work, at the end your rating depends on how close you are with manager. Even the HR's in India are very much inclined towards certain managers, they don't even care to investigate the complaints raised against managers no matter how much attrition is there. There are lot of incapable managers who worked as contractors from companies like CSC and got converted as FTE's. Most of those managers follow a service company like culture.

Pros

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Cons

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
